Vyvs Backtracking Bonanza

Complete A Meat Most Magnificent, The Perfect Cup (Meat Variant), and A Place to Call Home in final fantasy xv. Get Catoblepas Brisket and a photo of Insomnia.

A Meat Most Magnificent

If you have completed Takka’s previous quests, you will receive “A Meat Most Magnificent,” which requires you to gather Catoblepas Brisket. Make your way to Coernix Station - Alstor and accept the hunt “Marsh Madness! The Giant Awakens” from the Crow’s Nest Diner - Alstor. Travel southwest to the northern end of Neegyss Pond to find the Catoblepas. This beast has high HP and deals significant damage but is slow. Your strategy should be to avoid its attacks, using warp strikes and aerial assaults while targeting its body or head. Utilize your techniques and Armiger. You may need to repeat the hunt multiple times to obtain the Catoblepas Brisket. Return to Takka with the brisket to receive your reward and unlock the Sizzling Humongo Steak recipe for 2,600 Gil, which teaches Ignis the “Thick ‘n’ Juicy Steak” recipe.

• Reward: EXP 3,000 / Allural Shallot x5 / Kettier Ginger x5

The Perfect Cup (Meat Variant)

This quest variant requires you to return to Leide. If you previously told Gladiolus your favored ingredient was “Meat” during “A Need for Noodles,” you must obtain meat from a Behemoth. Fast-travel to the Norduscaen Blockade Parking Spot in western Leide. Head east into the wilderness to find the Rogue Behemoth. Behemoths are weak to greatswords and shields, and resistant to fire and holy. After defeating the Behemoth, return to the Norduscaen Blockade Parking Spot and travel southwest to the Entethina Haven Campground to prepare the Cup Noodles.

• Reward: EXP 4,000

A Place to Call Home

Vyv wants a picture of the Crown City, taken by Prompto. Ignis can drive you to the Crown City Checkpoint (an auto-save point you restart from on death) Parking Spot. From there, head northeast through ruins, past the Crestholm Reservoir Fishing Spot, and follow a dirt road southeast. The enemies here are slightly higher level than in Chapter 1 but are still considered trivial. Use Warp Strikes to gain AP. Reach the ledge overlooking Insomnia and have Prompto take the picture. Return to Vyv to receive your reward and unlock his next quest, “The Pen is Mightier than the Sword,” which includes subquests “Leide Imperial Base,” “Duscae Imperial Base,” and “Cleigne Imperial Base.”

• Reward: EXP 3,500 / 17,500 Gil

Leide Imperial Base

To complete one of Vyv's subquests, return to Leide and go to the imperial base (Formouth Garrison) southeast of the Prairie Outpost. Go to the road south of the base and take a picture. You will likely encounter imperial dropships and their cargo.

Duscae Imperial Base

For this quest, have Ignis drive you to the designated Quest Location. Exit the car and take a picture.
